At about 7:30 I let all the dogs out in the yard and then I saw him. The little black and white striped criminal emerged from the day lilies. Miles was smart enough this time. Having been sprayed twice in the last year he stayed at a safe distance. Bogie stayed near Miles and was spared also. Holly was curious though and approached the skunk from the wrong end and that was it. I saw it all emerge like a slow motion movie. Not again I thought! I got all the dogs in the house and took Holly upstairs to start the peroxide, baking soda and dish soap routine. I know the recipe by heart now. Poor Holly, in her 11 years with us she's never gotten it before. Well...I guess she can cross that one off her bucket list.
Bogie is a smart guy and seems like he's learning just by watching. Hopefully Holly helped him learn an important lesson tonight. Stay away from the black and white squirrels!
